A page to show up #1 on Google when searching for "Jeremiah" (Currently #4). Only the prophet and TV show left! I have the edge, TV show is cancelled and the prophet isn't generating any new content.

The prophet, TV show, and that pesky Owyang guy going down!A page to show up #1 on Google when searching for "Jeremiah Grossman", and it FINALLY has!

Blocking META refresh with LINK tags

While researching Browser Port Scanning without JavaScript, I wanted to find a way to get the browser to kill its connections and move on to the next IP Address. Similar to JavaScript Port Scanning with window.stop() since the timeout period is quite long and needed to speed the process. I figured a meta refresh was the way to go after waiting 5 seconds. Like so:

What I found was that while the LINK HTTP request is waiting, META refreshes won’t fire until is resolved. Weird. Again, I don’t know how this is useful, yet, but it could be for something in the future.
